Bid-Ninja Has Added a “Video Wall” – Getting Familiar with Bid-Ninja Has Never Been So Easy!

/in , /by

Given how fast Bid-Ninja has been growing (not only for our QuiBids products, but for our DealDash & Beezid products as well), we have hardly been able to keep up with some of our new users questions.  There is admittedly a lot to get familiar with when you first get started with Bid-Ninja, so we felt that it was about time we created short & concise videos that answer every question that we get the most of.

We did this and created a “bid-ninja instructional video wall” which you can check out here.

What we did was “break down” the installation and use of our software into the smallest segments possible and created videos explaining each one.  This has allowed us to create very short videos that allow you as a user to quickly find the video that is going to answer your question and only your question.  You won’t be stuck having to sit through a 2o minute video trying to find just that one moment that answers just your question.

For example, if you’ve been trying to figure out how to view the “forever free” auction tracker that allows you to pull up a list of all Quibids live auctions within FireFox, but you couldn’t figure out how, we’ve got a video for that (and only that)!

What about if you couldn’t figure out how to install Bid-Ninja into Google Chrome you say?  No problem!  We’ve got a video for that (and only that) too!

Don’t understand what each of the tabs & reports of information you’re looking at are when you first arrive at an auction?  Once again, we’ve got you covered!  We’ve got a video that goes over ONLY the information you see when you first arrive at an auction.

In other words, everything about our software from the analytics, to the player stats, to the autobidder to the auction tracker all have their own short video answering just what questions you’ve got on your mind.

So go ahead, if you’ve got a question, get it answered on our “video wall” here.

Avoid QuiBids Auction Locks. No More Wasted Bids!

Quibids Locked Auctions: What You Need to Know

With the rollout of Quibids new “locked auctions” the more experienced Quibids players thought winning on Quibids would become more difficult…this couldn’t be further from the truth!

Bid-Ninja rolled out a truckload of new features that actually make winning on Quibids in combination with these new locked auctions even easier than it has ever been before. This video demonstrates just exactly how that’s possible. Now not only will you know when a Quibids auction will lock before it does, but you’ll also be able to see which bidders have and haven’t been locked out of an auction after it locks AND you’ll see which bidders will and won’t be locked out before an auction actually does!

Here is the video (watch in full screen HD to see details):

 

 

What You Need to Know

Knowing when a Quibids auction locks before it does means that you don’t need to waste bids trying to prevent yourself from being locked out. You can now just pop into an auction just before it’s going to lock, place a single bid, and then when it locks you won’t be locked out!

For example, let’s say Quibids has two different auction, both offering $50 gift cards. As a Bid-Ninja user, you tell BidBuddy to “prevent lockout.” Both auctions are live: “Auction A” locks with 30 eligible bidders; while “Auction B” locks with 15 eligible bidders. Naturally, you decide to stay with Auction B. However, just to be extra diligent you review the bidder analytics in Bid-Ninja to see which of the two auctions has more power-bidders. Unless there is a big disparity between the players’ experience level in the two auctions, always stick with the auction with less bidders. Fortunately, Bid-Ninja’s player stats are color coded by experience level, allowing you to quickly access the level of competition in each auction.

Check out the detailed screenshots on the following linked post:  Quibids/Bid-Ninja locked auction features. Bid-Ninja makes winning on Quibids.com even easier. So go ahead, get your piece of the action and get Bid-Ninja today!

Bid-Ninja Has Completed the Scheduled Maintenance Upgrade…and Bid-Ninja is Now Faster & Better Than it Has Ever Been in the History of It’s Existence! 

As you probably already know, Bid-Ninja had a scheduled maintenance upgrade performed on December 6th. It took us longer to complete than we wanted it to (wasn’t finished until 3:00am on December 7th) which we apologize for, but once we started it we couldn’t simply stop in the middle. So, again, we do sincerely apologize for the extended outage, however it was well worth it. Bid-Ninja is now faster and more efficient than it has ever been.

We have created a short video to PROVE to you how mind blowingly fast Bid-Ninja is now (in case you want to see proof before you log into Bid-Ninja)! Click the play button below to see for yourself:

Bid-Ninja is Having a Scheduled Maintenance Upgrade – Anticipate Downtime – Details Within

/in , /by

Bid-Ninja is Will Have a Scheduled Maintenance on 12/06/2013 – Anticipate Not Having Access to Bid-Ninja from 8:00am EST to 2:00pm EST

This Scheduled Maintenance Upgrade Will Bring Improve the Speed & Efficiency of Bid-Ninja to a Level NEVER Seen Before – Bid-Ninja Will be Faster Than Ever Before!

With the recent release of all of the Bid-Ninja Locked Auction Features, we’ve grown by leaps and bounds in a very short period of time. The ability to win more auctions using Bid-Ninja with these new features has grown tenfold…in short, it’s tremendously powerful and our users have experienced this personally…so of course word has spread like wildfire.

So not only are more of our users using our software more often, but we’ve also put on more new users than ever before, resulting in literally more users using our software (and winning more auctions) at the same time than at any point in the history of Bid-Ninja. That, in combination with the Holiday shopping season, has pushed our servers to the max.

As always, we want to make sure our loyal Bid-Ninja’s have the best user experience possible. So what we’re doing is upgrading our servers and our database language to bring more speed and efficiency to you.

We know this is inconvenient, but it’s a small price to pay for the incredible speed that will come in exchange for a few hours of downtime. Please anticipate not being able to use Bid-Ninja from 8:00am EST to 2:00pm EST on December 6th, 2013.
